Paper: Value and Momentum Within Stocks, Too
Abstract: This paper strives to advance the field of finance in four ways: 1) it extends the theory of the “The Arithmetic of Active Management” to the investor level; 2) it addresses certain data problems of factor-based methods, namely with respect to value and book-to-market ratios, while introducing price-to-fair-value ratios in a factor-based approach; 3) it may lay the foundation for academic literature regarding the Valuentum, the value-timing, and ultra-momentum factors; and 4) it walks through the potential relative outperformance that may be harvested at the intersection of relevant, unique and compensated factors within individual stocks.

Phillips 66 Records Strong Free Cash Flow in Second Quarter
Image Source: Phillips 66 Investor Update. We like Phillips 66’s investment prospects. The company recently raised its mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA target to $14 billion by 2025. It has a strong investment-grade credit rating of A3/BBB+, with a net debt-to-capital ratio target between 25%-30%. Maintaining capital discipline is par for the course for Phillips 66, as it has generated 12% average ROCE since 2012. The company targets returning more than 50% of operating cash to shareholders, too. Its shares yield 3.3% at the time of this writing. Jun 14, 2024

Geopolitical Risks Driving Crude Oil Prices Higher
Image: Crude oil prices have staged a strong advance to start 2024. Geopolitical tensions continue to be elevated as concerns grow that the war in the Middle East could further escalate, and as the war in Ukraine continues to rage on. On April 1, Israel apparently staged an attack on an Iran embassy in Syria that killed several military officials, including three senior Iranian commanders. Iran has indicated that it would retaliate, and many are speculating that the possible attack may be on Israeli soil, which would further increase global tensions. Ukraine has also been actively targeting Russian energy infrastructure, cutting into Russia’s refining capacity. Apr 5, 2024
Dividend Increases/Decreases for the Week of April 5
Let's take a look at firms raising/lowering their dividends this week. Apr 3, 2024
Phillips 66 Raises Dividend 10%!
Refiner and High Yield Dividend Newsletter portfolio idea Phillips 66 declared on April 3 a quarterly dividend of $1.15 per share on its common stock, reflecting a 10% payout increase. We continue to like shares and will update our dividend report on the company soon. Mar 20, 2024
Phillips 66 Hovering Near All-Time Highs, Shares Yield ~2.7%
Image: Phillips 66 continues to be very shareholder friendly returning cash in the form of share repurchases and dividends. Though crack spreads can be quite volatile at times, there’s a lot to like about Phillips 66. The company is targeting 2025 mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA of $14 billion, up from $10 billion in 2022. Cost savings should remain ongoing, with its target calling for a total of $1.4 billion in savings, implying the company has $200 million more in savings to go. We like its investment-grade (A3/BBB+) balance sheet and target for 2025 mid-cycle adjusted operating cash flow of $10+ billion, up from $7 billion in 2022, with expectations that it will return more than half of operating cash flow to shareholders. Phillips 66 is a quality income idea for investors seeking exposure to the energy space. Mar 17, 2024
